[RFC PATCH] KVM: x86: Fix APIC page invalidation race

From: Eiichi Tsukata
Date: Sat Jun 06 2020 - 00:36:41 EST


Commit b1394e745b94 ("KVM: x86: fix APIC page invalidation") tried to
fix inappropriate APIC page invalidation by re-introducing arch specific
kvm_arch_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range() and calling it from
kvm_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start. But threre could be the
following race because VMCS APIC address cache can be updated
*before* it is unmapped.

Race:
(Invalidator) kvm_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start()
(Invalidator) kvm_make_all_cpus_request(kvm, KVM_REQ_APIC_PAGE_RELOAD)
(KVM VCPU) vcpu_enter_guest()
(KVM VCPU) kvm_vcpu_reload_apic_access_page()
(Invalidator) actually unmap page

Symptom:
The above race can make Guest OS see already freed page and Guest OS
will see broken APIC register values. Especially, Windows OS checks
LAPIC modification so it can cause BSOD crash with BugCheck
CRITICAL_STRUCTURE_CORRUPTION (109). These symptoms are the same as we
previously saw in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=197951 and
we are currently seeing in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1751017.

To prevent Guest OS from accessing already freed page, this patch calls
kvm_arch_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range() from
kvm_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range() instead of ..._range_start().
